[OPEN-ILS-DEV] PATCH: xml_utils.[ch] (const-correctness)

Two little tweaks:

1. I added the const qualifier to the second parameter of xmlSaxAttr().

2. I moved the prototype of _xmlToJSON() from the header to the 
implementation file, and made the function static.

At least in its present form, _xmlToJSON should not be part of the
public interface because it is confusing.  Sometimes it allocates a
new jsonObject, which needs to be freed, and sometimes it doesn't.

A better design would be for it to expect to receive a non-NULL pointer
to an existing jsonObject.  Since it is called in only one place 
(other than a couple of recursive calls), this would be an easy 
change to make.  However I left it alone -- as long as the function
is visible only from within its own source file, the potential for 
confusion is limited.
